Ancient Godly Monarch

Chapter 1418: Journeying up the Demongod Mountain Translator: Lordbluefire Editor: Lordbluefire

Above the god mountain, bright lights flashed dazzlingly.

There’s only a single path leading to the peak of the god mountain. This path was very wide, Qin Wentian was in the form of a giant roc as he moved along the ancient path. Other than him, there were also many experts, some humans, some demons, walking on it. Many of them were peak-stage immortal or demon kings, with the mid-stage being fewer.

As for initial-stage demon kings, only a limited few could be seen here. Several powerful demons turned their gazes towards the great roc which Qin Wentian had transformed into, their eyes flashing with disdain. An initial-stage demon king also dared to head to the god mountain to seek good fortune? It’s fine if he just wanted to watch, but if this initial-stage demon king dares to covet and fight them for any treasures, he would only be courting his own death.

Qin Wentian naturally wouldn’t be bothered about what the others thought. He transformed into the form of a great roc to enter the Demongod Mountain was simply because of convenience. As long as the demons don’t stop him, he wouldn’t mind their gazes of contempt. Qin Wentian himself also knew that a cultivation base at the initial-stage of the immortal king realm was far from sufficient. If he wanted to pry the secrets of the Demongod Mountain, he had to be low-profile.

If not, there would be no way for him to walk to the peak of this Demongod Mountain.

“What a brilliant light. That must be an ancient sun tree.” A sound of exclamation rang out. Up ahead, an incomparably dazzling light, brighter than the sun, blazed brilliantly. Qin Wentian’s eyes flickered with the light of truth, he continued forward while ignoring the source of that light. Now, at the side of the ancient path, he could see an ancient sun tree.

Each leaf of this ancient tree was in the shape of a sphere, similar to the sun. It also radiated blinding light and a scorching aura.

Around the tree, numerous golden sun crows could be seen circling it. These strange variation-types of golden crows seemed to be comprehending the mysteries hidden among each leaf. Other than them, there was also a group of humans who originated from a peak power in the immortal realms known as the Sacred Sun Sect. They cultivated in the extremely fierce sun-type energy.

At this moment, a screech sounded out. A gigantic golden sun crow plucked a leaf from the tree and placed it in his mouth, slow chewing it. An instant later, the entire body of the crow began to shine like the sun as blazing runes appeared on his body, mysterious to the extreme. A moment later, with a flap of his wings, he summoned an unfathomable technique that gleamed with dazzling light, capable of exterminating everything.

In the next moment, he plucked another leaf and chewed it while an expression of enjoyment could be seen on his face, as though he was enjoying the most delicious delicacy in the world.

The people from the Sacred Sun Sect all had cold expressions on their faces. These golden sun crows were a variation-type of golden crows, they had the innate talent of golden crows and inherited the power of the sun. Their bloodline and bones had sun runes within but they, as humans, were much weaker in comparison and could only depend on comprehending. These demonic beasts were truly loved by the heavens, being granted such abilities that inspired jealousy in others.

Qin Wentian glanced at them for a moment before he continued on his way, not stopping at all. Not too long after, he saw a silver-colored beautiful tree. This ancient tree actually formed the countenance of a human and with just a single glance at it, one would feel themselves being drawn in and bombarded by the powerful of absolute charm.

The great roc continued soaring through the air. On the way to the peak, Qin Wentian saw all sorts of wondrous scenes, widening his perspective as he could only sigh in admiration at how marvelous this god mountain seemed to be.

If one were to say that the plants at the external boundary of this sacred land were able to cause ordinary demonic beasts to evolve, there’s no doubt that the treasures here are able to allow powerful demon kings to transform or even evolve to the next level.

Qin Wentian continued on. Finally, he stopped when he came to a certain point on the ancient path. At the side of the path, a destructive aura filled the air. The light of destruction interweaved with the radiance of the god mountain. There was an ancient vine king towering up into the sky, with many newly-grown and tender leaves sprouting out from it, closing and opening, resembling eyes that could cause people to fall in a state of hypnosis.

Below this towering vine, many terrifying experts, including powerful demons and extraordinary human experts, could be seen there.

“This is the totem tree of the Evil God Race. What are you looking at?” A Phoeroc passed by, glancing at Qin Wentian as he icily spoke.

The wilderness in the surroundings was incomparably vast. The Phoeroc race had always disdained the roc and phoenix races, hence, this passing Phoeroc looked down on Qin Wentian.

“I’m just looking around.” Qin Wentian’s voice was low as demonic qi gushed from him.

“Hmph.” That Phoeroc turned into a beam of light and disappeared into the distance. Qin Wentian actually chose to remain here beneath this ancient vine. There were indeed many demons of the Evil God Race here. They have all unleashed their auras, radiating an overwhelming demonic might, capable of destroying everything.

Among them, there were some evil gods whose eyes had already turned bloodshot, as the destructive energy within their bodies ignited, causing them to be extremely terrifying to behold.

“Awakening?” Some of the other experts from the Evil God Race had looks of agitation when they saw this. This was the awakening of their Evil God Race.

There were many supreme demon races that possessed extraordinary bloodlines which bolstered their potential. The true power of these bloodlines might not be awakened right from birth, but would slowly unlock themselves as the demons grew stronger. Not only for demons, but there were also many humans with bloodline powers who were the same as well. An example was the Battle Saint Tribe.

Also, this kind of awakening can also be segregated into different degrees of awakening. Given the history of the Battle Saint Tribe, their sacred inheritance bone was seized by someone else, resulting in the remainder of their race suffering a huge drop of potential when they awakened.

For the Evil God Race, they were born with evil eyes but they still needed to awaken it further. This can be considered an inheritance power of their race.

For those who have truly awakened their evil eyes, only then can they be considered among the royal faction within their race, becoming a supreme and lofty existence, surpassing the ordinary members. This towering ancient vine king was actually able to aid them in the awakening process.

Other than the Evil God Race, the Scorpion King Race, Spirit Ao Race, and other powerful demon races were here as well. There are also quite a few human cultivators, experts from the Sky-Nibbling Sacred Sect, as well as some nobles from the Senluo Immortal Empire. All of them cultivated the law-attribute of destruction.

Qin Wentian’s appearance seemed somewhat out of place here. Although there were also variations to the great roc race, the vast majority of rocs were all only proficient in wind-attribute energy. No one has heard of a roc being skilled in the destruction-attribute before, unless one was a mutated great roc.

Nobody disturbed Qin Wentian, he quietly floated at the side of the vine king. The opening and closing leaves were simply like blinking eyes, producing a fearsome vortex that wanted to absorb Qin Wentian’s consciousness. Qin Wentian’s entire being was soon covered by the destructive aura produced from the vine king.

His body began to flow with runic light. Treasures found on the ancient pathway leading to the peak of the Demongod Mountain were many times more powerful and tyrannical when compared to those found in the external boundaries. If one didn’t have enough strength, they would definitely die if they tried to absorb the energy. For those who weren’t at the immortal-king realm, they might simply die just from glancing at the tree.

Qin Wentian, who was in the form of the great roc, was now surrounded by terrifying vortexes of destruction. His body actually radiated his own destruction attribute laws and was counter absorbing the destructive might from the vine king, causing the blood in his body to start to churn.

In the center of Qin Wentian’s brow, a third eye appeared, gleaming with demonic light.

“This evil vine king can actually cause the power of one of my bloodlines to stir up, igniting my potential.” Qin Wentian silently mused. The great roc continued to move forward, moving closer to the vine king. After that, he began to copy what those from the Evil God Race were doing and started to proactively absorb the destructive energy from the evil vine king.

“Is this great roc courting death?” Some experts of the Evil God Race glanced at Qin Wentian. This roc actually dared to proactively absorb the destructive energy from the vine king. Before the power of this vine, even for initial-stage immortal kings who cultivates the destructive-law energy attribute, they would find it hard to bear the backlash.

After Qin Wentian absorbed the energy, the destructive might began to circulate around his body, infusing his bloodline. After that, his bloodline power seemed to gain the attribute of destruction, terrifying to the extreme.

What made Qin Wentian even more shocked was that the power of his bloodline seemed to be transforming. It was as though there was a mysterious force that was currently evolving within his bloodline.

“The totem tree of the Evil God Race can activate the inheritance power in the bloodlines of the evil gods, causing them to awaken their evil eye. As for me, I possess the supreme bloodline of an extremely powerful demon and also cultivate the law of destruction. To think that I can borrow this force to awaken as well. Could it be that the blood running through my veins is of an equal grade compared to the evil gods or even stronger?” Qin Wentian silently mused. He knew how extraordinary his bloodline was. If he could also use the eye techniques of the Evil God Race, this meant that his bloodline was powerful enough to replicate or replace the properties of the Evil God Race completely.

The great roc breathed in and out, surrounded by the lights of destruction but he still continued absorbing. At the same time, his third eye peered forward. He wanted to see if he could use the evil eye techniques of the Evil God Race. Even if this mysterious force wasn’t able to aid him to awaken completely, it would already be extremely good if he could comprehend the essence behind it.

Qin Wentian stopped right before the towering vine king. Although he wanted to reach the peak of the Demongod Mountain, his purpose in coming here was to increase his strength. If he received validation that he could cultivate the techniques of demonkind and the inheritances and treasures here were also suitable for him, he might be able to comprehend the true inheritance supreme techniques of the other greater demons other than just that of a mere Evil God Race.

More and more experts embarked on this ancient path. No one bothered the great roc who was at the initial-stage of the demon king realm. There were simply too many sacred beasts here, all of them greater demons of the Desolate Mountains. Unless it was the royal faction of the Sky Rocs, the golden-winged great roc being present here, all other rocs wouldn’t attract too much attention.

Time slowly passed by, the power of Qin Wentian’s third eye grew more and more terrifying. As he opened and closed his third eye, a faint but fearsome vortex of destruction could be seen, actually resembling the inheritance power of the Evil God Race.

“Has this roc mutated? He seems to have transformed.” Someone at the side commented. And at this moment, Qin Wentian stopped his cultivation. His eyes glanced at the side and that expert only felt a terrifying destructive-attribute evil eye looking at him, trapping him within the evil eye domain. However, in the next instant, this feeling vanished completely.
